Any fuel, such as kero- 4sene, fuel oil, high grade crude oil,distil- I ;l,ate,'denaturized alcohol, may be employed.

. upper vand lower pans or trays circular in-A If denaturized alcohol isemployed, 1t is preferable that the upper pan carry a covering or mat 32of asbestos or other noncombustible fiber. A similar mat SS'may beemployed to cover the bottom surface 4of .the trough or chamber 19 ofthe lower pan. In

case the burner is used where there is a suitable stack or natural draftis suiicient, the lower portion of the'casing may open direct to theatmosphere, as, for instance, throu h an opening 34. If natural draft isinsu f cient, this opening may be closed in any suitable manner and airmay be forced from a suitable blower througha conduit 35. By.

having the conduit extend through the bottom and. concentric with theburner, a

v proper and uniform' distribution of tlleair takes` place.Therefractoryl lining,l particul larly when arranged in connection'iwiththe burner, as shown, rapidlybecomes heated to `a high temperature and'aids in the proper? ,'disasso'ciationA andv combustion 'of the fuel..

It will be noted that the inclinedwall27 is directly above suchl'ame asarises`--rom the lower annular chamber 19 and 4passes outside of thevupper pan. Thus, the flame is deflected inwardly over the upper panvand across the surface of the burning oil.

In the specilic form illustrated, I employform, but it is of courseevident that 'the shape may vary in accordance with the shape of thechamber to be heatedand therefore may be oval, square, rectangular or ofany other desired form.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as-new anddesire tosecure by Letters Patent is: s

l. A burner including two superposed pans or trays held rigid in respectto e'ach other at'their center portions, means for delivering a liquidfuel up through the central portions to the upper surface of the npperpan, said 'upper pan having a plurality of4 air passages extendingvertically therethrough and each encircled by' an upwardly extendingboss, and said upperpan havin a peripheral flange of less height thansaid bosses, and a mat of non-combustible mate! rial disposed upon theupper surface ofsaid upper panand 'having aperturesthrough which saidbosses extend. y i

2. A burner includlng a pair of super posed trays, the lower tray havinan annular bottom wall and two upwar y extend. ing walls defining anannular chamber, a

central. hub,. branches connecting .said hub with said walls and spaced.apartto leave apertures therebetween, and said upper tray.

having-a depending hub resting upon said first mentioned hub and havinga peripheral f overflow flange disposed abovel said annular `chamber-andof less diameter tha'noneo said upwardly yextending Walls and of ordelivering liquid fuel up through' said tray.

3,. Infcombination, a-gburner lhaving two greater ,diameter thantheother, and means superposed trays, the lower tray. being of` largerdiameter than the uppertray and 'having an annular trough'beneath` the'peripheral edge of the upper tray, ,bothy ofjsaid trays` havin airpassages lea ng upwardly therethrou'g and wallspreventing the How "ofliquid` fuel down throughlvsaid passages,
